Zimmermann (7-2) was trying to become the first to win eight games in the big leagues this season.

Cabrera singled in Alex Amarista, who reached when catcher Kurt Suzuki fielded his bunt and forced John Baker at second. Zimmermann tried to pick off Amarista but his throw was wide of first baseman Adam LaRoche for an error, allowing Amarista to take second.

Cabrera's hit made a winner of Eric Stults (4-3).
